P3-S25 — EXTERNAL DATA DECISION
Date : 2026-08-26
Session : P3-S25 — EXTERNAL DATA BASIS VALIDATION & INDEPENDENT
POPULATION RECONCILIATION
Status : COMPLETE (preflight + inventory + method; full external-tick
M15/M30 oracle not completable within session budget)
Policy : docs/CODE_VERIFICATION_AND_SILENT_BUG_POLICY_v1.md
Namespace : ml/p3/p3_s25_external_data_validation/
Final classification
E — UNRESOLVED
Reason (honest, evidence-led): The prepared external-data candidates are a
34.5 GB / 722,941,870-row plain-text tick CSV and a 204,152-file Dukascopy
.bi5 directory. The single-pass tick→M15 oracle over the full 34.5 GB file
(the critical primitive required for independent UTC M15/M30 construction,
parity vs the corrected research basis, and external population replay) could
not be completed within the session's compute budget. Therefore the Phase 3-5
comparison values (timestamp / OHLC / direction parity) and Phase 7-10
population replay / reconciliation are not machine-verified in this session.
Per the brief's explicit instruction ("do not guess; do not silently repair; do
not fabricate"), an incomplete comparison is not reported as a verified result.
What WAS machine-established (Phases 0,1,2 inventory)
| Item | Evidence |
|---|---|
| Preflight all PASS | working tree CLEAN, HEAD==origin/main==8f1c80a, no stash/untracked |
| Tick story CSV schema | 6 cols no header: date,time,bid,ask,last,volume; bid<=last<=ask |
| Tick story CSV extent | 722,941,870 rows; 2003-05-05 → 2026-08-20; 34,473,661,010 B |
| Tick story CSV ordering | ascending by date (verified head/tail) |
| Dukascopy inventory | 204,152 .bi5 files; 141,058 non-zero; layout YYYY/Mon/day/NNh |
| Dukascopy decode status | binary container; not a standard LZ4/ZSTD frame; decoder NOT machine-verified (treated independently, not merged) |
Information-value test (Phase 11) — answers
| Question | Answer (from available stage) |
|---|---|
| Q1 confirm UTC-clock basis | NOT RESOLVED — requires completed external M15/M30 oracle |
| Q2 materially alter population | NOT RESOLVED — requires external population replay |
| Q3 explainable by feed differences | NOT RESOLVED |
| Q4 change interpretation of P3-S23 | NOT RESOLVED |
| Q5 another ML experiment justified | NO — P3-S26 remains NOT STARTED (no basis validated) |
Because Q1–Q4 are unresolved, the highest-value next step is a re-execution of the ingest with sufficient wall-clock (or a bounded sub-window) to produce the external M15 oracle and the downstream parity/reconcile. Until then the data basis is recorded as unresolved, which does not support the P3-S24 "current edge not demonstrated" conclusion being upgraded to confirmed.
Hard stop
ML / tuning / calibration / nonlinear model : NONE
Feature / label / TP-SL-horizon changes : NONE
MQL5 / production changes : NONE
External source files modified : NONE
P3-S26 : NOT STARTED
End of P3-S25 external data decision. Classification E — UNRESOLVED (external basis not machine-verified in this session; no fabrication).
